I'm not sure if its a good idea for u to skip in hunter x hunter they are kinda knee deep and almost finished with the arc they are in and idk if the understanding will be there. and you'd skip a bunch of awesome episodes xD

Anyway, the next arc will make Punk Hazard look tame (also it have a I Love Lucy joke) and it will have fairies, talking toys, a masked wrestler and gladiators

I love One Piece, the reason why I love it is that it have a order chaos. Where everything doesn't make sense, but somehow they do. Like the fire and ice island, it was created by two powerful Devil Fruit users. They was so powerful, that they change the climate of the island they was fighting on. There is a method to One Piece madness (It not like Bobobo-bo bo-bobo)

Tom, if you want to keep watching One Piece in the future, I recommend you to continue from the beginning, or at least watch the arcs that contain the backstories of the main characters. If you like Chopper, the Drum Arc is something that you must watch, besides it's only 14 episodes long.
